Chapter 373 - Beautiful Luo Dan.
Jia Fei and Xu Nuan sat there silently as they watched Luo Dan pouring her heart out in tears. Nobody said anything for some time as the only sounds that could be heard in the room were of Luo Dan's sniffling and sobbing.
After some time, when Luo Dan still didn't stop crying her eyes out, Xu Nuan and Jia Fei glanced at each other before carefully picking up their small forks and started eating the cakes that Jia Fei brought earlier with the coffee.
Because of Jia Fei's sudden confrontation, they somehow managed to finish their ice-water coffee but couldn't eat the cake in between the serious conversation.
To reduce some tension in the room, they decided to increase their sugar level by eating some strawberry cheesecake and a piece of brownie.
Luo Dan sniffled and wiped her teary-damped face with a tissue before looking up. However, her mouth was left open in disbelief to see Jia Fei and Xu Nuan stuffing their mouths with cakes as if she wasn't sitting there.
She was crying in front of them and they were eating cakes? How shameless!!
" Waah! A while ago, both of you were reenacting an emotional scene and suddenly it changed into a mukbang channel? How can your emotions change in a fraction of a second? Huh?"
Xu Nuan and Jia Fei paused in their actions upon hearing Luo Dan's sarcastic remarks and glanced at each other before putting down their spoons and 'elegantly' wiping the corner of their mouths with tissue paper.
" Then what do you want us to do? Cry the whole day when she is alive and living the best of her life? I am sure she wouldn't have cried this much when she woke up in this girl…I mean Xu Nuan's body." Jia Fei said, pointing at Xu Nuan with her eyes.
Luo Dan glared at Jia Fei for talking so inconsiderately. Even though they're talking to Jiang Yue, the person sitting in front of them is Xu Nuan. Jiang Yue might be well and alive, but someone did lose their life, and sadly no one isn't aware of that truth.
Also, the confusion in identity is still awkward and uncomfortable to them. They can't simply talk to her casually like before.
This might take some time for them to digest the bizarre truth but she was sure that things will get normal soon enough. Because now they're aware that Jiang Yue is alive and was around them all along.
" She is right. I didn't cry that much even after waking up at the hospital. Now when I think about it, I took the whole situation rather lightly. Seems like I am more strong-minded than I look." Xu Nuan chuckled thinking about the day when she woke up at the hospital for the first time in this new body and had an argument with Gu Xingren and the so-called parents of Xu Nuan.
Not only that, that was the first time she saw Han Zihao, who came to meet her at the hospital. Time sure flies.
It's almost a year since that happened and in the past year, so many things have changed in her life. She not only managed to prove her capabilities to the world by establishing her new company and entering Xin Lin University without any external help but also got a handsome boyfriend as well.
In Jia Fei's language, she sure is living the best of her life.

The two hours went by in chatting as Jia Fei's curious questions to Xu Nuan didn't stop even for once. She was dying to know how this supernatural thing that always occurs in web novels happened in real life to her.
More than that, how the hell did she become two years younger than her? That's so unfair. Now she is not only younger and more beautiful than her, because of Jiang Yue's memories, she also has her skills and talent too.
On top of that, she achieved so many things in just a year. She debuted a girl group that is topping all the music charts and even built an entertainment company. Not only that, but she also got a boyfriend.
And here she is working in a cafe and always gets scolded by Luo Dan.
How unfair!!
" Don't think everything is cool between us. We're still angry with you. How can you not-" Jia Fei was ranting about her emotions after gulping down two cans of beer and was sipping on her third one.
Although Luo Dan tried to stop her from opening beer cans in the cafe, Jia Fei and Xu Nuan ignored her. Coffee was no more interesting to them. The drama was too interesting to let it waste while drinking coffee.
" How did you know that it was me? I mean….even Luo Dan didn't feel anything suspicious about me, then…how can you be so sure that it's me?" Xu Nuan cut off Jia Fei and asked while staring at her in a daze.
The alcohol had made her cheeks redden and her dazed eyes were staring at Jia Fei, waiting for her to answer.
Even Han Zihao didn't believe her when she told him for the first time and took her words as a ridiculous joke. It was too random for Jia Fei to suddenly talk about such things and be so sure about it.
Jia Fei looked up at Xu Nuan and let out a heavy sigh before answering, " Hah! So you're saying that you were not suspicious?"
" Yah! Think about it. Have you ever tried to act like Xu Nuan? Every action of yours screams that' I am Jiang Yue. I am the Queen.'" She laughed, thinking about all the weird things that Xu Nuan does.
Xu Nuan pursed her lips and thought about Jia Fei's words. And thinking about it like this, she realized that she was right. She never tried to pretend as Xu Nuan, not even for once.
She always acted however she wanted and to think about this, the Gu family must have been so shocked to see her behaving like this after getting into the accident. Gu Xingren must be regretting pushing her on the road that day because if she hadn't done that, things might not have turned out like this.
" Although I had my suspicions about you being so friendly to us before as well, after hearing your boyfriend calling you Jiang Yue at the hospital that day, my doubts started to move in a certain direction. At first, I thought that I was being ridiculous and making fanfiction but after finding out about the accident of Xu Nuan from Yuhan, the picture started to become more clear to me." Jia Fei continued.
" That's why I called you today to try my luck. And guess what, just like always, I was right." She showed her tongue, teasing her for getting caught in her mind-game.
Luo Dan was impressed by Jia Fei, for the first time. She never thought about Xu Nuan's actions in such a way but Jia Fei doing the whole investigation on her own was so cool.
" Waah!! Jia Fei, I am impressed. You should use some of your intelligence in running a business as well. I am sure our profits will soar in the sky if you do that. " Luo Dan commented while patting Jia Fei's back.
Jia Fei frowned and gave her a glare, which made Xu Nuan and Luo Dan burst into giggles.
" By the way, since when did you get so close to Yuhan? As far as I know, there is no way you guys can be so close. That's weird." Xu Nuan asked.
Jia Fei looked up at her and blinked in surprise before speaking, " What close? We're just…friends. More like buddies."
" Also, you shouldn't talk about other men, especially the one who got dumped by you." She commented, which made Xu Nuan's brows raise suspicion.
" Why are you bringing that up here? Aren't you being too protective of him?" Xu Nuan asked while leaning back.
Jia Fei stared at Xu Nuan and frowned. How can she not get protective of him? Both of them got rejected by the people they love.
She sighed and shook her head, " Aren't you busy? You should go back now. I am tired."
" Investigation is over." Jia Fei waved her hand before doing a head down on the table and closed her eyes, pretending to sleep. If she stayed awake, they will make stupid assumptions and will tease her about it.

" Hey, Luo Dan!! What's taking you so long today? We're getting late for work…" Jia Fei barged into Luo Dan's room to see why she was not ready yet.
They usually leave for the cafe together and Luo Dan, who is the early-bird among the two of them, always gets ready first and prepares breakfast for both of them. However, today she didn't even step out of her room when it was already time to leave for work.
What's taking her so long?
" What…are you doing?" Jia Fei was speechless to see Luo Dan dressed in a yellowish cream color dress and was sitting in front of the dressing table, doing her makeup.
